Baked Sale: “Pie by the Slice” booth on Oct. 19-20th at the From the Land Festival (http://www.fromthelandfestival.com/) went well. Jay’s family volunteered for the booth. They had $390.03 in expenses, and $551 in contributions. We thank them for their efforts.

On Saturday, Nov 9th, our chapter had a screening of the movie “Bringing It Home” at the Appleton Public Library. The turnout was a bit low. We discussed possibly screening it again in February, giving us more time to advertise and spread the word.

Board of Directors – Who is in for what? Brainstorming session:

Dani suggested that maybe once or twice a month we can try to have a movie screening of some type. There are many different movies we can choose from. She will look into the logistics of that.

We had also received an email from a student who asked us to have some kind of event in his area. We do not have any events planned there, and will contact him to tell him how to get us invited to his campus. We cannot just go to a college campus and have an event. A student does have to invite us, and there is a process they need to go through with their school administrators in order to do so.

We discussed writing Christmas Cards to our legislators. We would like to have a contest: we are looking for submissions of blank cards with christmas artwork – your own original artwork only – as well as sayings or poetry to put inside the cards. Submissions are due by December 1st. Winners will be announced before midnight on December 11th.

Linda informed us of some possible confusion about Moms for Marijuana. Please continue to support the organization with letters, emails, and on facebook. However, for the time being, please refrain from donating to the organization, until they can iron everything out.

The meeting was adjourned at 6:07 pm.

At 6:08 pm, we began a supplemental general consensus meeting off of the record.
